First get a cookie. Then, use socket.io to send the message 'timeoutUser'
headers = {'content-type': 'application/json'}
url = "https://letsrobot.tv/api/v1/authenticate"
payload = {'username':'RobotGuy', 'password':'mypassword'}
response = requests.request("POST", url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)
print response
socketIO = SocketIO('https://letsrobot.tv', 8000, LoggingNamespace, cookies={'connect.sid' : response.cookies['connect.sid']})
socketIO.emit('timeoutUser', { 'username': 'trollyMcTrollface', 'robot_id': '1234567', 'robot_name': 'AnyBot'})
